This is a modern, clean yogurt store where you pay by the ounce. They have 10 different varieties of yogurt to choose from, as well as actual ice cream. In addition, there are about 15 different toppings that you can add. The young man at the counter was very pleasant and helpful, and the yogurt was excellent. One thing that sets this store apart from the typical yogurt store, is that they also have actual ice cream, for either cones or in a cup. They also have donuts, hot chocolate, and hot tea. As a side note, they have hand sanitizer right next to the counter. Good idea. Bonus point for the free hand sanitizer. read more

On my last visit in, I noticed that they now have waffle cones. I asked the friendly lady working there about the waffle cones and we got to talking. She told me she is the new owner of Coco Swirl and that she actually makes the waffle cones in-house. I had to try one with half Dole Pineapple and half pistachio. The cone was was perfect and Dole Pineapple is hands down the best flavor in my opinion! It tastes just like the Dole Whip you get in Disneyland! I will definitely be back to try the other flavors they offer! read more

Coco Swirl - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Pleasant Hill, California

I went to Coco Swirl for the first time after receiving a coupon in the mail. The yogurt options were not as extensive as places like Yogurtland. Moreover, one of the machines had liquid yogurt come out and I had to dispose a cup. The yogurt was typical which isn't a good or bad thing, but it was average. Overall, I prefer Yogurtland over Coco Swirl and will probably not visit this location again. read more

As much as we love cocoswirl's frozen yogurt, we won't be going back soon. We went in on Friday night and the place really stinks. Melted yogurt dripping off all of the machines and a couple out of order. Toppings station doesn't look like it's been cleaned in awhile and the topping containers haven't been washed. It wasn't busy so I'm not sure what the problem was. I figured it was later in the evening, got my yogurt and left. The next day my kids wanted to go so we went again. I'm not kidding when I say it looked exactly the same but worse. Like nothing had even been cleaned overnight. I expected there to a reset at close of shift and I don't think anything was done. Same mess as day before with more added on. I was so grossed out that I just can't go back. read more

I heard a lot of good things with Coco Swirl and since Ice N Tea completely was a fail, I drove over to Coco Swirl in hopes to get my boba lunch fix. How was it? Boba was undercooked, but sweet. Milk black tea was okay in sweetness and felt like an earl grey. For $3.25 for a large size, I can't super complain, but hard boba is not really fun to eat. The descriptive review: Coco Swirl is located in downtown Pleasant Hill located right near Corner Bakery and now new Lizzie's Pies. There's parking along the main street though you're likely better off parking in the larger lot behind. There were two workers tending to my order. Both nice. Coco Swirl is primarily a frozen yogurt place a la Yogurtland, but they also do sell boba and ice cream which you can also place in between a donut! They quickly made my boba and I was off! The tea though of my own fault was a bit sweet, but you can get it customized in sweetness. You can get various different toppings but I went with the standard honey boba. It was sweet, but very hard which leads me to believe it was yesterday's boba or undercooked. Would I come back? Unlikely. I actually would prefer Quickly which is cheaper and although hit and miss on the boba, usually is cooked properly. read more

I was very disappointed on my last visit that it ALMOST ruined my yogurt experience all together... I was so excited to bring my boyfriend here (something new for him to Yelp about) because I've been raving about how great my last experience was and that this place was voted "Best Yogurt in the East Bay" according to KRON4 News. When we got there, my yogurt easily melted so it looks soupy by the time I paid and the fruit toppings weren't fresh. My boyfriend didn't get mochi because he said it didn't look fresh. I felt so bad because (1) he's a big fan of mochi and (2) I've been telling him that this place makes their mochi fresh daily. I would like to think that our experience was a one-time thing since they were closing and/or we just came on a bad day, but I honestly feel that if they were closing, they shouldn't turn off the machines until the place IS actually closed so the last customers will have the same great experience as the first customers. read more

Pretty decent spot. There were just enough flavors of fro-yo, but minimal toppings. Luckily, the toppings were delicious and my snack, as a whole, was was satisfying. The service was definitely above average, as the cashier was warm and welcoming. The prices were even less than the other fro-yo places in the area. The stations were clean, as well as the floor. Try the chocolate/vanilla swirl with the other goodies. You will not be disappointed. I would go back! read more

WOW this new ownership has really brought Coco Swirl to life again. The selection is great. The added addition of Boba is a very nice and tasty touch to the menu. I strongly recommend Thai Milk tea boba. Very authentic tasting. Reminds me of the ones served in Thailand. The Dole Pineapple Soft Serve is worth the trip alone. Taste just like the ones you get at the Dole Whip plantation in Hawaii or Disneyland's Dole Whip in the park. Luckily getting your hands on it doesn't require you traveling far, just to Pleasant Hill. I would attach photos to this review BUT its always gone before I could bring my phone out. Will be back for more, more, and more. read more

So much yes! I can get a pineapple dole whip without having to go to Disneyland! I love that they also had a pomegranate raspberry that was also began! Such a bonus that I can add your own toppings too! Hardly anyone there and the girl who rang us up was super nice! read more

They had blackberry which is impossible to find, unfortunately on a rotating flavors list so i wont know when i can visit again

Clean and convenient location to grab frozen yogurt in downtown Pleasant Hill! Lots of topping options too! I notice Specialty flavors on my occasional visits, like the passionfruit, orange, guava flavor today (7/23/22) read more

A friend and I stopped by here so I could order some bubble tea. I ordered mango green tea, which turned out to be absolutely disgusting. The woman behind the cash register, who was the same one to make my bubble tea, was nice, but I still can't believe how terrible the tea was. I'll go elsewhere, whenever I'm back in the area, for bubble tea. read more

Standard pay by the pound fro-yo. There were a bunch of flavors on the menu that were out. Four of the machines were broken. The choices left were pretty generic. read more

I haven't had frozen yogurt in years! I was in the mood for some and when I was driving I noticed coco swirl was open during the shelter in place. It's not self serve right now but they had all available flavors and topics listed clearly to choose from. The person working there was very friendly and she checked in with me to see if I wanted more etc. She was available to give me exactly what I wanted amount wise. I got some vanilla and some dole whip with mochi on top. The dole whip was amazing! Got my bowl for $2.50! Price is not bad at all. Was happy with What I got. It tasted great and was refreshing. They have a lot of other options as well besides just frozen yogurt. They had milk tea options as well and donut ice cream sandwiches. It's a cute little shop in downtown pleasant hill. read more

Review #056 - 2017 After shopping at the Carter's store and walking around the shopping center, I decided to treat myself and the baby to some fro-yo since the weather was so nice out. We walked in and the place was pretty empty, but there were a few people sitting out front enjoying their fro-yo. I asked the gentleman who was working if I could get a sample cup and he asked me which flavor I wanted to try so I asked for my usual, their original tart, which was really good. I also decided to sample the Ghirardelli chocolate, which was ok when I sampled it, but left a bit of a weird after taste when I decided to buy a few ounces. The place seemed clean and the man was nice and friendly. They had about 8-10 different flavors available, but I only tried the two that I ended up purchasing, which were good enough. I'll probably be back, if I happen to be in area, but I wouldn't make an extra trip. read more

Coco Swirl - $5 worth of fro-yo - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Pleasant Hill, California

I've only been here once, and unfortunately, it was a disappointment. The Boba was so subpar, I kind of wanted my money back. I don't know how the frozen yogurt tastes, but the boba lacked flavor, the boba balls were unusually slimy, and the consistency of the drink was just way too watery for my liking. And I wished it had been colder on that hot day. I won't be coming back, and I don't understand how this place got a Best of the East Bay award. read more

Coco Swirl - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Pleasant Hill, California

My favorite go-to yogurt ice cream place! Everything here is pretty regular for a yogurt ice cream place; their pricing and toppings are what you see at any other yogurt place. They also have a wide variety of flavors. My favorite is the tart flavor. The reason why this place is my favorite is because of their mochi. I believe their mochi is handmade because it's so fresh and soft every time I have it as a topping. I always get the tart yogurt with strawberries and mochi. I also sometimes add their lychee jelly and mangos. I'm not a fan of their boba drinks but I highly recommend their yogurt and toppings, especially their handmade mochi; it's so fresh! I went today and saw they added strawberry mochi to their toppings! read more

I saw an IG post from a friend holding an ice cream donut from this place and it was calling my name. I knew I had to make a visit. So I drove from Dublin to Pleasant Hill and ordered me a glazed donut with mocha almond ice cream. My mouth was watering. My hubby thought it was over-rated and didn't think it was a big deal - BUT I LOVED IT! The donut didn't have that oily aftertaste. Happy with my dessert and will come back for more! read more

Amazing ice cream doughnut sandwich! I would recommend getting chocolate mint or strawberry in it. I went for cookies and cream and the flavor was lost. However it was still heaven! The doughnut was moist and soft. The presentation was nice and neat. I like this place and would comeback in a cheat day! read more

this was actually the worst service I've ever received in my life ever and I am over 50 years old. I went in there. There were only three flavors available even though five were posted and then one of the three were mango and it wasn't working. I asked the lady there for help because it wasn't coming out. She looked perturbed that I asked for any help so I stood back and watched her as she tried to intimidate me with her arm movements and speaking intimidatingly talking to me in an unnecessary fashion me and bullying me and then telling me when I asked for the owner that the owner was lucky to have her because she or they don't have anybody left. Then she yelled and screamed and told me to get out of her store for absolutely nothing , she started antagonizing me as I walked out of the door not only was there no good yogurt, but on top of that, the worker there was and bullying and pulled some Black Lives Matter stuff on me and accused me of mistreating her, that's amusing, and then called me an asshole. pretty disturbing behavior out of pleasant hill I guess the owner cares less about service.this was on a we'd around noon today :( read more

Pineapple Dole Whip! Coco Swirl one of the few (if not ONLY) local places to get the dairy-free soft serve concoction that was made famous at Disneyland's Enchanted Tiki Room. But call ahead to make sure they have it in stock as it is generally available only on the weekends. Other flavor choices are not as extensive as a place like Yogurtland but hey, Yogurtland doesn't carry Dole Whip! read more

I really like "fro-yo", but I'm not obsessive about it. Coco Swirl has a nice selection of self-serve yogurt flavors, with a variety of toppings available. It's all tasty, but perhaps not warrenting a 5 Star "As Good As It Gets" Yelp rating. Coco Swirl is an easy walking distance from Gayle's house. The store space is clean and well kept. It's roughly across the street from Cold Stone Creamery and in my opinion equally overpriced. The best deal by far is the $1 ice cream cone at the Baskin Robbins near Todo Santos Plaza in Concord. And Loard's in Pleasant Hill (near Safeway) also offers tasty and economical options. read more

When a persistent high pressure ridge.... drives the heat up to 100 + degrees in CoCo County.... and its your first week going back to school.... where do you go when the school bell rings.... and your suburban Mom is waiting outside in her Volvo station wagon? CoCo Swirl! Want to join about 10 other Mom's and 25 other kids (car pool pick-ups, and siblings) into a 10 x 30 ft shop on Crescent Drive in Pleasant Hill, for a Pleasant thrill? Fro-Yo efficiently self-served! ...Grab a cup (only two sizes) , ...select one of 10 flavors on 5 machines, ...add your toppings, ...put it on the scale in the back by the 2 registers, ...and pay $0.40 an ounce. ...25 kids and their 10 Mom's ...can be processed almost as fast ...as a laser scanner reading bar codes at Safeway's checkout. At about $4 ASP (average selling price) per cup, you have just rung up $140 sales in 10 minutes. No fancy plastic color chairs and icons to purchse like PinkBerry. Just non-fat Fro-yo. The chocolate and vanilla were creamy, the original Tart was tart, and the fruit flavors were fruity. The CoConut was CoConutty. CoConut Fro-yo, from CoCo Swirl, in CoCo County. Pretty straightforward. Pretty Hot business! (well, really cool biz) read more

Nice small place. Good selection of flavors (tart or non-tart). Serve yourself and pay. I only dock one star because one time they were super busy, but the cashier didn't stop these tourist from using their hands to add toppings. BOOO!!! After seeing that, I'm not sure when I'll go back. read more

DO NOT GET BOBBA here unless you have no choice and you are really thirsty. Bobba milk has no distinction from the different flavors they offer... you might as well just stay hime and make your own by brewing a black tea and mixing it with milk. Yogurt in the other hand is great, smooth. read more

Very good service. They have a dole whip flavor! I would highly recommend this place.

This store needs to work a little harder on variety. I dont like the fact that its 38 cents an ounce when the flavors are not that great. I tried thin mint and bleeech I wished I hadnt. My friend tried to get some samples and the girl behind the counter had to give her the cups to sample and then stand there next to her as if to question if she was going to buy anything or something? That was rude. The toppings are so-so. Very basic. I would rather go to Orange Leaf by Safeway which is 2 minutes away anyday. They are 8 cents cheaper an ounce and have a wayyy better selection of EVERYTHING and the cups, sample cups, waffle cones, etc., are all right there and they dont hover all over you. Also, why would they have chairs that look like anyone over 100 pounds would break them? Iono. read more

CocoSwirl was the first frozen yogurt place I've ever visited. I've never heard of a self serve ice cream place you could add your own toppings to! And they charge you by weight! Haha - but this was 4-5 years ago? And now I'm more educated on my frozen yogurt ;) This place always has great service, new flavors, and fresh fruit toppings. I haven't been here in a while because of a closer froyo place that opened up in my hometown. Now it seems they also offer froyo cookies, ice cream doughnut sandwiches, and boba drinks! They definitely have expanded their menu since the last time I've been here and I must give one of their new items a try! read more

No mochi (homemade, kinda slimy and not chewy) No chocolate hard shell No whip cream No almond chips (just slivers used for decor) No crumble Heath bars Rude Mexican man, cashier. Very expensive compared to other yogurt places. I will not be back. I had the tart with one spoon of strawberries and some marshmallow topping, 30 minutes later I was running to the toilet read more

Great variety of both sweet and tart froyo, and they offer interesting combinations to be swirled together to create even more tasty flavors. The evening I went they offered pistachio and peanut butter to be enjoyed separately or swirled together, and for another yummy combo they had chocolate mint and raspberry. They had quite a few other flavors, but those were the stand outs for me. The staff was very friendly, helpful, and I noticed they were constantly cleaning. At 40 cents per ounce the price is right too. Me likey Coco Swirl. read more

On the suggestion of my wife, we tried Coco Swirl when we were in the area. It was a hot day so the frozen yogurt was the right choice and was very satisfying. My wife and I tried a combination of Honeydew melon, vanilla, and raspberry topped w/ fresh strawberries; that was refreshing and tasted perfect for the summertime. Now we are hooked! read more

First of all, their Hawaiian sherbet is AMAZING! Probably one of the best ice cream/ frozen yogurt flavors I've ever had. I split a cup of pineapple dole whip & Hawaiian sherbet with my sister and one year old, and it was so refreshing and delicious. The service was also top notch. I don't live in the area, but I will definitely go out of my way to have this again (and again). read more

The new owner of this buisness reached out through Yelp and invited us back to visit after buying the buisness and firing the old employee who was so rude to us.

I LOVE coco swirl! Helena is the nicest employee, she put a HUGE smile on my face! Definitely recommend for a yummy sweet treat :)

Coco Swirl is a trendy new yogurt place situated in the heart of Pleasant Hill plaza. The taste and texture is light, with the right kind of tanginess, and sweetness. I absolutely love it! This place exceeded my expectations! My favorite flavors are strawberry and mango! I'm from L.A. so I've had my share of tasting yogurt, so imagine my surprise to find this shop in the bay area. Voted 2008 Best Yogurt Joint in the Bay, Coco Swirl changes its flavors every day so there is always something wonderfully new to look forward to. Toppings range from cereal to nuts, mochi to cookies, and candies to fruits. Next time I'm back in town I will make a beeline to Coco Swirl! read more

Because Milk Tea Lab is temporarily closed and I'm stubborn and still wanted a boba fix, we found this place only a couple a minutes away, and what a mistake that was. Walked in and the girl working was right in front of us, looked at us and kept walking. No hi, no smile, no greeting. Wonderful. We walked up to look at the menu and she came behind the counter and looked so irritated to be working. Hands on her hips, open eyes, eyebrows up. Not only do I feel bad for people like that, but I get irritated by them. When I told her we were still looking at the menu, she rushed out from behind the counter to clean the frozen yogurt machines. When she finally did take our order, this girl had so much attitude, I threw some back and she realized she needed to calm the f*** down. So in addition to the rude service, the boba drinks here SUCK. Don't waste your money. Go somewhere else. I realize that this place doesn't specialize in boba drinks, but if you can't do it right, don't do it at all because you're wasting your time. read more

I've been to both WC and PH locations and it's just okay. I've had just about every flavor here and on my most recent visit, I like green apple tart the best. I had the chocolate but it wasn't really good. I should have gotten raspberry instead. read more

Brayden loves this place and I don't feel guilty going here. The owner is friendly and nice. The portion sizes are weighed out. There are other options other than frozen yogurt such as boba tea and donut ice cream sandwiches.

Coco Swirl - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Pleasant Hill, California

The ice cream here is really great, definitely recommend the DOLE whip. But lots of times, the employees are teenagers who just don't put a smile on your face. They seem so unenthusiastic about working there. And I wouldn't recommend the boba. First of all, it takes about five minutes to make it. Second, it just doesn't taste good. I've tried plenty of boba before, and this boba just is never as good. I usually get milk tea, and it's always too much or too little milk. The popping boba pearls have a gross aftertaste, but I know that there's better ones out there. If you want boba, you should get a boba kit from Trader Joes. Those taste much better. read more
